Going to Paris?
Through a friend I came to hear about au pairs. These are students and young people who go overseas to work for a family as a nanny; in return for their work they are granted a place to live, food and some pocket money. For fun one night I made a profile on a popular au pair website that helps its members meet families worldwide. Before I knew it there were messages in my inbox asking me if Id like to go to Germany, Australia, and France. I was surprised that I even heard anything, but I looked over the profiles anyways. Before I knew it I had come across some great families and I found myself really wanting to go and try the au pair life out. After conversing with one particular family I believe I have found the perfect family to go and work for. They have one little boy and need help taking care of him while the parents work. They have a great set up for me, I know I can be very useful to them and I'm quite sure they and their city have a lot to offer me.

Hi Amelia!
We heard you had a good flight and the family was there to meet you. Was Victor there too? Probably not.
Do you have your own room and what is it like and is it in a home or apartment building or what?
Knowing you you'll tough it out until bedtime. Are you or did you conk out on your bed?
Tell me your first impression of Paris. I bet you were excited to see it.
Hope to get a posting from you soon.
Opa and Mamie
